We start the pager too early for several git commands, which results in the errors sometimes going to the pager rather than show up as errors. This is often hidden by the fact that we pass in '-X' to less by default, which causes 'less' to exit for small output, but if you do export LESS=-S you can then clearly see the problem by doing git log --prretty which shows the error message ("fatal: unrecognized argument: --prretty") being sent to the pager. This happens for pretty much all git commands that use USE_PAGER, and then check arguments separately. But "git diff" does it too early too (even though it does an explicit setup_pager() call) This only fixes it for the trivial "git log" family case.
